The former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee sued Fusion GPS and its founder in a sweeping suit alleging conspiracy to obstruct investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
In the suit, Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., alleges Fusion GPS worked directly with a tax-exempt organization to intimidate and harass him over his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. That organization, Campaign for America, filed bogus ethics complaints with the Office of Congressional Ethics to sideline Nunes as he investigated Fusion GPS’s role in the false claims that President Donald Trump treasonously colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election from Hillary Clinton.

These lawsuits are probably the only way we will learn anything about what was perpetrated by the Obama administration on Conservatives and President Donald Trump. The swamp prepares to bury the whole nasty thing. Andy McCarthy essentially said so yesterday on Hugh Hewitt.

Go get 'em David. If nothing else they will have to pay their lawyers a bundle to defend the indefensible and maybe make some nasty headlines telling the truth for a change. These people are low life that need to be brought out into the light of day.

Our "Justice" System is a roll of the dice. Judges are assigned at random. The only variable in the equation is the political party of the President that nominated them. Sad really... But hey, if enough people bring enough of these suits eventually a "rule of law" aka Republican judge will get one.

Bravo Devin Nunes! At least this coup has allowed us to see a small cadre of patriots stand up to support us. That includes a small but mighty free press with the likes of Mollie Hemingway carrying the torch.

I like it! Sue them unmercifully! Nunes is using leftist tactics against the left: Lawsuits! The discovery process will produce some very, very interesting information (and I hope much of the information will be suitable for subsequent criminal prosecution) about the whole sordid democrat hoax.

Am CONVINCED that law suits by individuals are the ONLY way any pf the guilty will be tried....and one would hope convicted. Much as I like Barr and Horrowitz etc. I have serious doubts that anyone at the top will get more than a mild slap on the hand, whereas we taxpayers..............

I have been wondering where that suit came from. Sure took the wind out of Devin's sails, and I bet Paul Ryan was totally okay with an innocent man being railroaded for about 5 months. I hope Trump appreciates Nunes, because a guy like him is in very short supply right now in congress.

Texas Republicans are sounding the alarm as Democratic presidential candidates get ready for their debate next week in Houston, warning that the Lone Star State could become more purple if the party doesn’t treat it as a 2020 battleground.
Most in the GOP are confident President Trump will win Texas and its 38 electoral votes next year, and they think Texas GOP Sen. John Cornyn will turn aside his Democratic challenger.
But they are worried they will lose more House seats a cycle after Democrats clawed back two districts as they retook their majority.

Retried New York Police Department (NYPD) Lieutenant Darrin Porcher blamed the “regressive policies” of Democratic New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio after video surfaced Thursday of a bystander throwing an open container of milk at a New York Police officer.
“We look what happened in the summertime, result of regressive policies from city hall, quote, unquote, Mayor de Blasio,” Porcher said Friday during an appearance on Fox & Friends. The suspect remains at large, but Porcher advocated for a public shaming of the man once he is brought to justice. “We have a term we refer to as perp walk,” Porcher said. “Everyone should

Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” mocked Minnesota Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar for repeatedly telling the same joke at President Donald Trump’s expense.
After Klobuchar launched her campaign in a February blizzard, Trump mocked her for discussing global warming while getting drenched by snow, referring to the senator as “snow woman.”
In the ensuing seven months, Klobuchar has repeatedly made the same joke in front of audiences, saying the science of climate change is on her side, and asking how Trump’s hair would fare in a blizzard.

A panel of three judges dismissed a case brought by Britain's former Prime Minister John Major and businesswoman Gina Miller arguing that current Prime Minister Boris Johnson's attempt to suspend parliament through prorogation is an abuse of power, Bloomberg reported Friday.
The case will be appealed to the U.K.'s highest court, handing Johnson a second legal victory and setting up a final battle over parliament and likely the fate of the U.K.'s exit from the European Union (EU) in the Supreme Court.
Miller slammed the ruling in a press conference Friday, according to Bloomberg, and vowed to continue the battle before the nation's highest court.
“Today we stand

House Democrats have taken their first formal steps to probe President Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to steer U.S. and foreign government business to his luxury resorts, part of an expanding roster of inquiries informing them whether to recommend of articles of impeachment.
In a series of letters revealed Friday, the Judiciary Committee and Oversight Committee are demanding significant details about Trump’s call to host next year’s G7 summit at his own private resort — as well as Vice President Mike Pence’s recent stay at a Trump property in Ireland.

Former White House press secretary Sarah Sanders made her debut on Friday’s “Fox & Friends” in front of a live audience of first responders.
When host Steve Doocy opened the floor for questions and comments from the audience, one firefighter named Chris stood up to say his piece. “More of a comment than it is a question,” Chris clarified. “I have three daughters and three granddaughters. You are a true inspiration to women, not just in our country but throughout the world. I want to thank you for what you’ve gone through. To be honest with you, from bottom of my heart

"I have never seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke," tweeted Donald Trump, himself a frequent consumer of diet soda, back in 2012. Besides being an amusing self-own, Trump's comment helps explain the trouble with most research on diet drinks—including a new study that's been making the media rounds this week.
"It doesn't matter if it's sugary or diet: New study links all soda to an early death," reported The Washington Post on September 4. It was one of many similar headlines. The implication of all of them was clear: Zero-calorie cola is a big fat lie, and if you don't ditch it now you're staring down a premature grave.

Former Obama White House adviser David Axelrod said in a tweet Thursday that Joe Biden was distorting his own record to a damaging degree.
Linking to a Slate article about Biden's misleading remarks about when he began opposing the Iraq War, Axelrod wrote Biden was "in danger" of creating a harmful meme about his candidacy.
"It's one thing to have a well-earned rep for goofy, harmless gaffes," Axelrod tweeted. "It's another if you serially distort your own record. @JoeBiden is in danger of creating a more damaging meme." (Tweet) Biden claimed in a recent NPR interview that he only voted to authorize President George W. Bush to use military

Two conservative groups voiced concern Thursday at a Utah school board meeting about a new law allowing teachers to answer “spontaneous questions” about sex from students.
“If one child asks about oral sex or something explicit and the teacher answers it, it doesn’t mean the other 30 kids want to hear it,” said Robert Woods, a father with four children in public school, according to The Salt Lake Tribune. “Why can’t the teacher just say ‘That’s outside our curriculum. Please ask your parents if you really want to know’?”
Thirty protesters from Utah Eagle Forum and Pro-Life Utah occupied almost every public comment spot available after the president of

Women who experience stress in pregnancy could be more likely to have children with personality disorders, research suggests.
The first study of its kind looking at the link between personality disorders and stress in pregnancy found children were at risk if their mothers experienced any level of stress while pregnant. Children had more than three times the risk of developing a personality disorder by age 30 if their mother experienced any level of stress or moderate stress while pregnant, when compared to children whose mothers had no stress.
And they had almost 10 times the risk if their mother suffered severe maternal stress.
The findings, published in the British Journal of Psychiatry,

Eleven months into the fiscal year, almost five times more Christians than Muslims have been admitted into the U.S. as refugees, in sharp contrast to the situation under the Obama administration.
Christians are by far the most persecuted group worldwide. According to Open Doors USA, 245 million Christians around the world, or one in nine, are persecuted for their faith.
With the total number of admissions approaching the Trump administration’s record-low ceiling of 30,000 refugee admissions for the fiscal year, as of the end of August a total of 28,052 refugees had been resettled.
State Department Refugee Processing Center data show that the admissions during the first eleven months

Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.) announced on August 26 that he will leave Congress before his fourth term is up because his ninth child will need heart surgery when the baby's born in October.
On Thursday, Duffy told Fox Business, "it was sad to say goodbye," but he knows he's doing the right thing for his family. He said he's not sure what the future holds for him, but he knows it's time for a change:
I think what's unique is, people are saying, I'm not a lifetime member of Congress. Service is not for a lifetime. I'm going to come in. I'm going to serve. I'm going to give my

CNN and the Human Rights Campaign Foundation have partnered to host the next Democratic presidential town hall, focused on LGBTQ issues.CNN host Don Lemon made the announcement after the seven hour-long Democratic presidential climate town hall on Wednesday. "CNN is partnering with the Human Rights Campaign Foundation for our next series of presidential town halls on issues that are important to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community," Lemon told viewers.

Socialist presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders says if he’s elected, he wants American taxpayers to pay for abortions in poor countries around the world to limit population growth. Why? Because Sanders claims mass abortions will limit climate change.Sanders made the assertions at the CNN townhall discussing the “climate crisis.” A female teacher asked the following question: “Human population growth has more than doubled in the past 50 years. The planet cannot sustain this growth. I realize this is a poisonous topic for politicians, but it’s crucial to face.

Former Vice President Joe Biden told a CNN town hall on climate change Wednesday night that he endorses high-speed rail as a way to "take millions of vehicles off the road.""Everything is incremental," Biden said. For example, you talked earlier about transportation. I've been pushing really hard for mass transit and for rail. We can take millions of vehicles off the road if we had high-speed rail. I've been a champion of that for the last 25 years. We know the corridors where we could do that. It would literally take millions of vehicles off the road. But you have to have a rail system that

2020 Democrat hopeful Joe Biden told “The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert Wednesday night that he would nominate his former ‘boss’ Barack Obama to the US Supreme Court.“Would you appoint him [Obama] to the Supreme Court?” Colbert asked Biden.“Hell…yes!” Biden said with a creepy grin on his face. “I don’t think he’d do it but…he’s fully qualified.”Biden’s eye filled with blood on Wednesday evening during a CNN climate

In his book The Art of the Deal, President Donald Trump described his communication style as "truthful hyperbole." Hyperbole, sure. Truthful, questionable. Take Trump's recent speech in Pennsylvania where he declared that his tariffs had turned things around for the domestic steel industry. He also claimed the unratified United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement—USMCA or the new NAFTA—and his steep Chinese tariffs would also bring jobs back to the United States. Are the Trump trade policies bringing about a manufacturing revival?

Pop icon Barbra Streisand has declared that the Electoral College, a system widely seen as the bedrock of the U.S constitution and its democratic principles, represents an “assault on our democratic principles.”
Speaking to The Washington Post for an article on what the U.S. Constitution represents to herself as well as other progressive figures such as Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Streisand described the system as “antiquated” and advocated replacing it with a system that allows the winner of the popular vote to win the election.

The Gathering Threat to the Electoral College—and to the U.S. Senate. The left has a hot new cause: getting rid of the Electoral College. And if the left succeeds in doing away with that venerable institution, its next target, the U.S. Senate, will fall like a dried apple. As is so often the case with leftist causes these days; the spearhead is Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York; being social-media-savvy and telegenic, she’s the star of the progressive A-Team. Way back on October 6, 2018, AOC was tweeting: It is well past time we eliminate the Electoral College, a shadow of slavery’s power

The United States is now ranked among the world's worst places to move to, due to rapidly increasing costs of living, health care and basic education.
A new survey released this week of more than 20,000 expatriates representing 182 nationalities used five overall pillars of criteria, 48 separate factors and 17 subcategories to rank countries. Using a sample size of at least 75 survey participants per location, Quality of Life, Ease of Settling In, Working Abroad, Family Life, and Personal Finance were rated by expats from all over the globe. The sixth annual report from Expat Insider found the U.S. ranked 47th out of 64 countries rated in the survey.

America’s premier soccer league, Major League Soccer, has declared the red, white, and blue Betsy Ross flag a “symbol for hate groups” and banned a couple in Utah from waving it at games.A Utah couple who were in attendance at a Major League Soccer Real Salt Lake game says they were told by stadium officials to put away their Betsy Ross flag because the original flag of the American Revolution is a “symbol for hate groups.” According to Randolf and Diana Scott, the league now claims that the flag, one of America’s earliest national banners,

The recent DOJ report on James Comey, the ongoing FISA investigation, and the probe of the Russia-collusion investigators under John Durham are all pointing back to POTUS 44, formerly known as Barry Soetoro. (Snip)
As investigators probe what the president knew, and when he knew it, other revelations about the former Barry Soetoro have managed to escape notice. This lapse comes despite massive revelations from his own handlers.
According to official biographer and Pulitzer winner David Garrow, the defining Dreams from My Father is not a memoir or biography. It is a novel, and in this work of historical fiction

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has came under fire from conservatives on social media Thursday after he said he would be open to discussing population control as a means to combat climate change.
The presidential candidate made the comments on Wednesday at a climate town hall on CNN after he was asked by an attendee about rising populations and how the planet "can not sustain this growth."
The questioner, identified by CNN as a teacher named Martha Readyoff, said that she realized linking population control to climate was a topic "poisonous for politicians, but it's crucial to face."

Wind turbines only last for around 20 years, so many of them are now wearing out. That raises serious questions about disposal of defunct wind turbine parts. The turbines’ giant blades are not recyclable, so they must be dumped in landfills. The Sioux Falls Argus Leader reports on one South Dakota landfill that is saying no mas to wind turbine blades:
[T]he Argus Leader reports that more than 100 wind turbine blades measuring 120 ft long have been dumped in a Sioux Falls, South Dakota, landfill, but there’s a problem: the massive blades are taking up too much room, according to local City officials. …
